When the new Zody’s store (sort of like a Kmart –by the way I still have my life time Gemco membership card, even though they went belly-up years ago) opened in Burbank, Smiley Burnett (one of Gene Autry’s sidekicks), and Linda Kaye
from “Petticoat Junction” were there. Burnett had a big roll of what looked liked tickets. He would tear off a “ticket” handing them to the people in line as an autograph. It didn’t even look like he signed them. It looked more like his signature was printed on them! After a few years, I threw mine away. Whereas, my uncle, who worked at Universal Studio, obtained a personally autographed photograph from Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. It was one of his prized possessions –really cool.
Substitute teacher was trying to make it as an actor.
He once took over the Enterprise, when Captain Kirk, Spock, Scotty, the communications officer, the doctor, George Takai, and even the Russian guy beamed down to some planet.
Also, my mom was going with a gofer at the studios, who acquired a Star Trek script, which I tried to rip off from him, but before he left :”Hey! Where’s that script!?” Somehow I knew it would have value in the future.

The Department Store
um hi
***************************************************
Back during the Silicon Valley days, I used to walk through a department store, then on a bridge over the road to the mall in Cupertino.
One day I was trying to buy something from a sales lady behind a counter
, and behind her was some dude.
I asked something of the sales lady, who rudely just ignored me, while her eyes were blinking frequently with the dude closely behind her. Soon the dude left, and I asked something of the lady, who, looking embarrassed and distressed, continued to ignore me. So I went away, and realized that she had been molested by the dude behind the counter.
As I worked nearby, I often went through the department store, sometimes to get lunch at the mall. Another time I saw the same extremely attractive, well-dressed woman looking really sexy as I went through the store. About an hour later as I came back I noticed her
walking in front of me looking slightly disheveled with what looked like sperm on the backs of her nylon clad legs.
I imagined that she was being used sexually by her boss in order to keep her job.

Last Chance for Romantic Love
Working at the Reno post office during the big recession of the 80’s.
Training on the Letter Sorting Machine — one address per second!
Has a keyboard like nowhere else.
When not training, either throwing mail or helping out the mail handlers unloading trucks.
While throwing mail, sometimes the big gal
would come by to chat and even touch me.
She was a couple of inches taller than I, but well proportioned, and was a cheerleader at one time.
The poor old wolf man, resembling Charlie Manson, was responsible for second-class mail — newspapers and such, wished he had never worked for the post office, but had too many years invested to quit.
For the Halloween party I wore a hat with my glasses –“Hey Elton John!”
During a break former prison guard from Carson City uttered barely audibly: “If they get rid of me, I’ll come back and dust this place!” I think he survived, since he kept saying that he wanted to be a mail handler instead of a clerk.
Too broke to buy new glasses, which would have made the training easier no doubt.
Some gal who used to work in a casino finished first.
I was on the last training module, and it was entirely possible that I would have finished the training second out of about 10 people.
However, supervisor shit-canned me after 10 weeks.

Dating
“I want for nothing.”
**************
Esther lived on our cul de sac in Arleta (San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles).
She wore her hair in bangs and had glasses.
One day, when I was about 10 years old, I was over there wearing loose fitting short pants, enabling Esther to sneak her hand up to my private parts. I think she just wanted to see the expression on my face as I was ignoring her –that got my attention!
She only did that once since to do it again would be wrong, and she could always say her hand slipped, but I never mentioned it to anyone.
Since then I’ve always associated women with bangs and glasses as being friendly.
Whereas on the street just off the cul de sac lived Herb and Flo
with their swimming pool.
One day while visiting over there I removed Flo’s soiled panties from the bathroom hamper, and wore them underneath my clothes.

The Tunnel
um hi
************************************************
The girls no doubt looked carefully before entering the tunnel, verifying that no one was to be seen from anywhere, but they didn’t notice my bus about a block away due to stop near the tunnel entrance! About halfway inside the tunnel, they went about their passionate business. The one with short hair wearing pants pulled down the lacy panties of the girlie one wearing a skirt with her lovely flat ballerina shoes, enabling the short haired one to ravage by locating her hand underneath the skirt, where it would do the most, while passionately kissing!
So, of course, the bus dumped me out. They
noticed me as soon as I entered the tunnel, causing them to desist and start walking toward the college at the other end. I caught up with them just after we all exited the tunnel with a tremendous feeling of embarrassment for having interrupted something so private. Further embarrassed to notice the disheveled girlie girl’s lacy undergarment showing due to not being pulled all the way up, and skirt askew.

POODLE SKIRTS AND PETTICOATS
Gail: “Hi just wanted to say hello from the UK, I well remember a time when girls wore full skirts and petticoats as did my older sister, god i was so jealous , one day around the age of 12 when i was home alone I tried on her Poodle Skirt and petticoats ,from that day i was hooked , Now so many years later I have my own collection and that 50s Bobby Sox Style remains my all time favourite.”
“Please let me know in future if you post anymore of you in that style .”
“Also i remember so years ago a scene from a film where a female is held down on a kitchen table ,she was wearing a full skirt and net petticoat as a man was fucking her , I just wish i could remember where it was from or do you know of ANY films with that sort of scenario , fucking in petticoats is a real turn on to me
Regards John ( Gail when dressed)
PS god I love your pics and site”
brie: Thanks for the interesting email!
There was a porno film similar to what you described called “Chasin the 50s.”
&
If it were not a porno film, then I don’t have a clue.
When I was growing up in Los Angeles CA, they kept showing a film on television that took place at a girl’s school, wherein a nubile teenage girl went into a utility closet to make it with a young janitor. She came out all disheveled
, and wore sneakers with her skirt. They always used to show it on television, but now you never see it anywhere!
Bye for now

Gail: “Fantastic thanks ,I have managed to find and download a copy of ` chasin the 50s ` video, .
Keep in touch Love you petticoat pics

PS——— I Love the USA its the best country in the world ,been to LA 5 times so far i have relatives there in Pasadena [a Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffle located there], last year my wife had driven 2,456 miles by the time we returned the hire car to LAX , I hope to return sometime this year.”
***********************************************************
I have numerous relatives in Los Angeles.
For instance, two female cousins who grew up in Van Nuys.
One was a victim of a sexual assault in the house in Van Nuys, while her parents were away.
The other, who was a cocktail waitress in a famous bar in North Hollywood, was a more willing participant,
though, unfortunately, died when she was only about 35 years old due to alcoholism. She was a real fast lane type of person.

“Annette Funicello
born October 22, 1942 was an American actress and singer. Funicello began her professional career as a child performer at the age of twelve. She rose to prominence as one of the most popular “Mouseketeers” on the original Mickey Mouse Club. As a teenager, she transitioned to a successful career as a singer with the pop singles “O Dio Mio,” “Tall Paul” and “Pineapple Princess”, as well as establishing herself as a film actress, popularizing the successful “Beach Party” genre alongside co-star Frankie Avalon during the mid-1960s.
In 1992, Funicello announced her having been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. She died from complications of the disease on April 8, 2013.”

Jamie and I ditched P.E. to go to the Shopping Bag supermarket for coffee.
The Shopping Bag on Foothill Blvd. in La Crescenta had a snack bar downstairs in the parking structure.
In fact my cousin had her first non baby-sitting job there.
I believe Jamie and I did this more than once. Anyway, the P.E. instructor found out that we were gone, and threatened to delay our graduation by flunking us in P.E., thereby forcing us to attend summer school to make it up. We did some big-time serious groveling to change his mind thereby getting one more chance.
During P.E. playing handball with Pike. Wap (smacking the handball).
Pike singing “Down by the banks of the river Charles.” Wap.
Only a glimpse of the girls on the other side of the fence wearing their cute P.E. outfits.
Can’t figure whatever happened to Jamie. Someone that clever just couldn’t disappear?!
Oh!
Because of the big earthquake, the Shopping Bag parking structure had to be reconstructed, and the snack bar was not rebuilt, only existing now as a dim memory.

It only lasted for about a year.
I think it was during the first grade.
Patty
and I formed a bond, as if we were an old married couple. Perhaps I met my soul mate, when we were too young to benefit from it?
We were almost always together. I didn’t really understand any reason for the attraction, but we were extremely comfortable together. One day the toughest kid in the school came upon us on a street corner. He seemed disturbed that I was with Patty, and started to hassle me into a fight. I was terrified as he knew ju jitsu, and I had seen him destroy another kid in a fight at school, still punching the other kid in the face even while the opponent was crying!
Amazingly, Patty stepped in between us and somehow defused the situation, knowing just what to say and how to say it.
Somehow my association with Patty suddenly ended, when I became best friends with Billy, though Billy and I were like two girls anyway!
Right! The Panorama theatre
at Nordoff St and Van Nuys Blvd
had a soundproof crying room with speakers for mommies and their babies. Also, I think there was a pizza place and a hobby shop next to the Panorama.
I remember seeing “Forbidden Planet”, “War of the Worlds”, the original “Parent Trap”, and “the Alamo!”
Once invited to sit with the girls. Magna
was the cutest girl in the school, but I thought she had a tough boyfriend, who would knock my head off!
Also, saw the sublimely prefect “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” there. Visited the old neighborhood last year (Arleta — used to be Pacoima). The Hebrew school on Beachy and Osborne is no longer there, but the building still exists. Around 1980 noticed Spanish language movies playing at the Panorama. Last year noticed the Panorama sign was still there.
Finally, saw “The Time Machine” there — going into the future where the Morlocks have taken over!

Harry Reems
um hi
Mostly from the LATimes:
Harry Reems, who starred with Linda Lovelace
in the 1972 pornographic film “Deep Throat”
and became a cause celebre in Hollywood after he was convicted on federal obscenity charges related to the movie, has died. He was 65.
Reems died Tuesday at a Salt Lake City veterans hospital.
He arrived on the Miami set of “Deep Throat” as the lighting director but when the man hired to portray the doctor in the film failed to show up, director Gerard Damiano said: “Put on this coat; you’re acting,” Reems told The Times in 2005.
At first he enjoyed the celebrity that accompanied starring in one of the most successful pornographic films of all time.
In 1974 when he was charged along with 10 others with conspiring to distribute “Deep Throat” across state lines.
It marked the first time that the federal government had tried to charge an actor for the results of a film’s distribution.
After he was convicted in 1976, The Times ran an editorial in defense of Reems under the headline “The Anti-Freedom Conspiracy” and pointed out that noted constitutional lawyer Alan Dershowitz had volunteered to handle Reems’ legal appeal.
“If this conviction stands, no actor and no writer anywhere in the country will be safe from prosecution,” Dershowitz said, according to the editorial.
Hollywood’s A-list also took note. Celebrities such as Jack Nicholson, Warren Beatty and Gregory Peck helped raise funds to pay Reems’ legal bills.
Reems was granted a new trial but the charges were eventually dropped.
The damage to his personal life had been done. While waiting to go on trial, “the heavy drinking began in Memphis,” Reems said in 2005 in The Times, and he became a “2-quart-a-day vodka drinker” who at one time lived “in the back of an Albertsons’ dumpster in Malibu.”
He didn’t stop drinking until the late 1980s, when he ended up in Park City, Utah, and entered a 12-step alcohol recovery program.
Once sober, he sold real estate.
The son of a small-time bookie and a housewife, he was born Herbert Streicher on Aug. 27, 1947, in New York City. At 18, he joined the Marines but received a hardship leave when his father became terminally ill.
Returning to New York in 1967, he acted in experimental and Off-Off-Broadway productions but turned to adult films when he couldn’t pay his bills, according to a 2011 New York magazine article titled “The Afterlife of a Porn Star.”
He went on to appear in more than 100 hard-core films that included 1973’s “The Devil in Miss Jones.”
[Georgina Spelvin
&
had the starring role.]
Reems also was interviewed in the 2005 documentary “Inside Deep Throat.”
In the late 1970s, he moved to Los Angeles and secured a role as a coach in “Grease” but was let go because filmmakers feared his notoriety would jeopardize the box office in the South, according to the New York profile.
“Acting was my true love,” Reems told the magazine, “and I buried that possibility by going into adult films.”
Survivors include his wife, Jeanne, whom he married in 1990, and a brother.
